feat: add WSL environment hint to system prompt (#8285)
When running inside WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), inject a hint into the system prompt explaining that the Windows host filesystem is mounted at /mnt/c/, /mnt/d/, etc. This lets the agent naturally translate Windows paths (Desktop, Documents) to their /mnt/ equivalents without the user needing to configure anything. Uses the existing is_wsl() detection from hermes_constants (cached, checks /proc/version for 'microsoft'). Adds build_environment_hints() in prompt_builder.py — extensible for Termux, Docker, etc. later. Closes the UX gap where WSL users had to manually explain path translation to the agent every session.
